+nodetree.sh:
+
+ Generates a number of tree graphs from a trace output file, showing
+ the tree of AnimationNodes at various instances of the
+ slideshow. Each node has a fill color corresponding to its current
+ state, a legend for the color values can be obtained by the colors.sh
+ script.
+ To generate output at other instances, use the DEBUG_NODES_SHOWTREE
+ macro in animationnodefactory.cxx.
